Install the right layer for each surface you use.

;;in any compose field to arm Shield mode - High-confidence PHI → auto-sealed on send

Android — all apps
Install the blckit keyboard
The blckit keyboard sits at the OS level. It intercepts every message you type — WhatsApp, SMS, Slack, email, clinical apps — before the send key fires. No need for a separate extension per app.
Set blckit as your default keyboard
Settings → General Management → Keyboard list and default → set blckit as default.
Or tap the keyboard icon in your notification tray during any typing session. Shield mode: tap 🛡 in the keyboard status bar, or type ;;.
Clinical apps get auto-protection
Doximity, Epic Haiku, Epic Canto, TigerConnect, Spok, Athena, Dragon Medical — blckit detects these packages and automatically arms Shield mode on every field entry. Lower confidence threshold in clinical context catches names and partial MRNs regex can't.
iOS — iPhone / iPad
iOS keyboard — in development
A Swift iOS keyboard extension with NanoTDF sealing is planned for Phase 4. Until then, use Safari with the Chrome extension on iPad (install via the iOS Chrome app), or use the web demo below on any device.
Developer — CLI + CI
Install the blckit CLI
Scan repos, seal .env files, and gate commits before secrets hit git.
# Install via cargo cargo install blckit-cli # Or download the binary curl -L https://blckit.dev/install.sh | sh
Initialize vault and install git hook
blckit init cd your-repo && blckit git install-hook # Scan for secrets blckit scan . # Seal all findings in-place blckit scan --fix . # Export ledger for this PWA blckit ledger export > my-ledger.jsonl
Export data to this dashboard
Export your ledger and vault metadata, then import them in the Ledger and Vault tabs of this dashboard.
# Export audit ledger (no secret values) blckit ledger export > blckit-ledger.jsonl # Export vault key list (names only — values stay local) blckit vault export-meta > blckit-vault.json
